Identities

A fundamental duality of human psychology, exists as the conflict between the Ego and the Identities, which are opposite in nature and construct. The body could be compared to a vehicle. The Ego could be corresponded to the driver, as the interpretation of what the vehicle encounters as it proceeds through reality and operates the body accordingly. Without the Ego, the body could not be operated, like as with the disease Alzheimer's. By the same token, with creation of Identities, these could be considered as backseat drivers, commenting on the decisions of the Ego, and moving into the driver's place when appropriate, to take over operation of the body, and more often than not permanently.

The conception of Identities, represents any degree of a multiplicity, as constructed Interpretive Personifications. Identity means that the Ego has the capacity to create Identities, which represent goals, objectives, ambitions, desires, dreams and fantasy, any of which the body in and of itself, may have no need, or which in fact may be dangerous to it, like the ambition of the Identity of race car or motorcycle driver. Identity personifications can be in harmony or in contradiction to the Ego. Thus the psychology of the individual may be innately conflicted. Cultural Identities as ideals may be in total conflict with the Ego, such as the skinny fashion model or beefed-up boxer. Identities are said to be male in orientation.
